The study also reveals the views of the supervisory officers on the role of FTC. However, the study establishes a relationship between training input conveyed by FTC and its relevance in practical work situations of the trained subjects. Still, one can find that 'the overall findings have significantly addressed the objectives of the study outlined.
Of course, FTC to some extent helps the subjects of BCS Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Cadres to perform a wide range of tasks, but the application of the learned knowledge, skills and attitudes acquired from the said course is not so for them. not satisfactory. It is a reality that the level of achievement of the objectives of FTC is not satisfactory, even though it is highly relevant to the subjects. Training needs of the new entrants to the Public Service must therefore be assessed at regular intervals before the training is given.
The study attempted to establish a correlation between the learned behavior in a training situation and the application of the behavior in real life. Another reason may be the cold reaction of the trainees' supervisors to the utilization of training input. To make the Foundation Training Course more focused on common needs of probationers of all cadres belonging to Bangladesh Civil Service and also make the training result oriented.

Opinion of the Trainees
Table 10 shows the application of the knowledge acquired in the course Public Administration, which consists of the modules State System, Managerial Behavior and Changing the Public Sector. Therefore, based on the above findings, it is safe to say that the FTC has a key role to play in bringing about positive changes in the behavior of probationers. The study gathers the general views of supervisory officer participants who attended the Foundation Training Course (FTC).
According to the views of the supervisory officials, the objectives of the Basic Training are mainly relevant for the subjects belonging to the Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Framework (Table 19). The relevance of weighted scores of objectives ranges from 78 to 86. Supervisory officers were asked to comment on behavioral changes of the trained officers in 21 different areas. The study interviewed 71 trained subjects (64 males and 7 females) from 38 to 40 Foundation Training Course (FTC) representing the BCS Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock cadres, and 88 district level supervisory officers of the said three cadres.
The study reveals that out of nine objectives of FTC, seven are highly relevant (weighted score 91.31 to 97.65) for newly recruited officers belonging to BCS Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Cadres as assessed by the trained probationers who have already participated in FTC (Table 6) ). Although the respondents considered the objectives to be relevant to the probationers, they have identified some reasons for less achievement of the objectives. The knowledge and skills gained from the modules under the subjects of Bangladesh Studies, Public Administration and Skills Development help most of the trainees to perform their duties significantly.
By means of a questionnaire survey, the study also reveals the views of the supervising officers on the role of FTC in bringing about behavioral and attitudinal change among the trained subjects in the same 21 areas that they (trained officers) mentioned earlier (Table 21). Supervisory officers further considered that the FTC role is not satisfactory (weighted score to bring about changes in two important behavioral aspects, such as admitting personal weakness and refusing to carry out the unethical order (if any) of the higher authority For them none of the 21 behavioral and attitudinal aspects of FTC appear to be satisfactory in bringing about change among the participants.
However, one can find that the overall findings have significantly addressed the objectives of the study outlined. Bangladesh Public Administration Training Center (BP ATC) is the top public sector training institution of the country. Of course, FTC to some extent helps the subjects of BCS Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Cadres to perform a wide range of tasks, but still the application of the learned.
It is a reality that the level of achievement of the FTC's goals is not satisfactory despite. A survey of BCS Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Cadre Civil Servants. xxii) The duration of the basic training course may be increased and the number of participants may also be reduced.
